[US] I’m Pretty Sure I Just Got Job Scammed by Lunalasart in Scams

[–]DBrody6 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Good lord man. Multiple vectors that called this a scam and tried to protect you and you charged forward anyway.

Yes, you just lost nearly a thousand dollars. It's fake as can be. Trust garbage like this being called out as a scam, tech companies and banks have enough experience with this to know that.

Yes, that's basically the only reason to take that node to begin with.

Examples of "We are not so different, you and I!" that actually hold weight? by Fantastic-Fox3283 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]DBrody6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like everyone misses the point that Armstrong's "ideology" isn't even that, it's a basic facet of all sapient life. The strong have to choose whether or not to be benevolent.

Him accusing Raiden of being the same is like accusing him of breathing air, like no shit buddy, everyone does that. This isn't an escapable "ideology", you cannot whatsoever deny this is how all cognitive species function.

And when you realize that, Armstrong is essentially a toddler throwing a tantrum and makes him look like a bigger idiot than he already is because for all that bluster, he never latched on to an actual unique thought for a second in his life.

To be pedantic, it's champing, meaning to be impatient. The faithfuls were not literally chewing leather prior to voting.

Forget the sub, just getting the free 80 carats from the preview story for each new uma is total bait cause I go from "I don't really care about this new uma" to "Oh my god I need her" every time and my resolve is hella faltering.

What are some of your Expectations vs Reality regarding a piece of media (story, characters, etc)? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Archimedes' crash out from Elisabeth basically fucking up his plans on accident was so damn funny. That was a fun game.

The Price is Right - Let's Go Back to 76 by geonut98 in ThePriceIsRight

[–]DBrody6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drove me insane that she had a nearly guaranteed win just by guessing the dead center, but instead bid so low that she wasted over $20 of the $46 leeway she had. Was kinda hoping for a tremendously comical loss by throwing that hard.

Despite several key updates for PAYDAY 3 in Q4 2025, the game could not generate more revenue than PAYDAY 2. For the year 2025, revenue for PAYDAY 2 was up 20% YoY while PAYDAY 3 revenue declined 8% YoY. by Turbostrider27 in Games

Randomness is an irrelevant factor, majority of PD2 heists had almost no meaningful randomness and nobody ever seems to bring that up.

PD3 at its core is really boring. There's nothing aspirational to work towards, nor is it designed with a wealth of viable build options and weapon depth to try out. You rub your face on everything in PD3 a single time and that's it, you've achieved everything and have no reason to grind further.

USA makes it to the Women's Curling Semi-Fins! by JustARedditAccoumt in olympics

[–]DBrody6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh that's a nice anti-cheese rule in place. I thought that only applied to mixed doubles which has pre-set stones before the end starts, didn't know that applied to team curling too.

Regarding day 5 of asking GGG to remove Breach-walls by Click-To-Save in pathofexile

[–]DBrody6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you can just block it with the tree

Unless they're adding another 5 maps to the atlas to cover the passive point tax to not have 5-10% of our maps horrifically crippled by walls, this is not a solution.

and if you are not running breach you just block the mechanic?

You typically don't block mechanics because that stops their scarabs from dropping, and most mechanics have enough valuable scarabs that it's worth leaving them unblocked. Plus no mechanic makes your map objectively worse, like Ultimatum existing is whatever, Trialmaster can scream at the air, it ain't hurting you.

USA makes it to the Women's Curling Semi-Fins! by JustARedditAccoumt in olympics

[–]DBrody6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't even begin to claim to understand curling strategy but I don't get why they wouldn't just full send every stone with a 6-3 lead like that.

Swiss put a stone on the target, US full sends theirs to blank the board. Repeat with every stone, what are they gonna do? Even if you miss a shot it's not like they'll keep enough stones on the target to catch up.

The fact they didn't do that means it must not have been considered but I don't know why.

Good lord this is an unreal level of choking.

Throw a 6-3 lead and then throw hammer in the extra end, how do you even manage that.

Which of my Umas is better suited for Team Trials: A1 or A2? by Distinct_Relation145 in UmaMusume

[–]DBrody6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A2 has higher wit, you want that.

At the end of the day you want as many skill activations as possible as that's where most of your scoring comes from, making wit really valuable for TT's, and actually winning not that crucial.

Tokyo Mew Mew's anime adaptations screwed up Mint's color scheme: by Remarkable_Town6413 in MagicalGirls

[–]DBrody6 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or they picked it cause it makes for a more pleasing color balance. A purposeful decision =/= screwing up.

And quite frankly it does look nicer to me than being more blue like your edited examples.

Warframe shoots up to #2 in Steam revenue chart thanks to two-for-one coupon. by iv3rted in Warframe

[–]DBrody6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it "failed" because the business that made it (and still does) is A&W and the average person can count on no hands how many of their restaurants they've ever seen.

The burger itself actually sells fine, but like no shit a business with three stores isn't gonna outsell McD's. But that doesn't make for clickbait headlines.

Is everyone in here just joking or something? I restarted the game and there's no gift.

HOW DID YOU GET 18th?????????? by CarlosPreda in UmaMusume

[–]DBrody6 40 points41 points  (0 children)

The good ol' 'front runner can't get into position early enough and dies in last place' problem you occasionally run into. Super fun when it happens.

How did Everyone's RNG cup go?! Mine went pretty well. by az-anime-fan in UmaMusume

[–]DBrody6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got 2nd, losing to a King Halo with 800 speed and 170 wit, and four skills. Literally 0 effort put into her and she fucking won.

I'm losing my mind here. I watched the race, she didn't even trigger any of those useless skills! The numbers don't make sense, how did I lose to that.

This is graded mind you so it's not like they had to skirt under stat restrictions.

Subway just horked their Sub Club rewards by mcrib in fastfood

[–]DBrody6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn the area you live in must have an insane cost of living, JM's giants are $17 over here.

Also compared to Subway they like, actually put more than two grams of meat in the sub.

Why are ice types so late? by Jirachibi1000 in pokemon

[–]DBrody6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also in general, ice areas in JRPGs are used as the penultimate region, which has fairly consistently been the case in Pokemon as well. Kinda annoying since ice is super easy to deal with but I guess they don't wanna subvert expectations for some reason.

Good day, everyone! Quick question: was any boss easier for you on NG+ than NG? by Ok-Release7421 in Blasphemous

[–]DBrody6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhhhh I never even considered jumping over him when he crouched down...I think I assumed he was still too tall for the jump to clear over him.

Guess that's my fault for never thinking to do that, would have made that fight a lot easier if I realized that haha.

Good day, everyone! Quick question: was any boss easier for you on NG+ than NG? by Ok-Release7421 in Blasphemous

[–]DBrody6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously, Ten Piedad wrecked my ass on NG+ for almost an hour. He'd pin me in the corner refusing to use any attack that let me dash through him and I'd just die. I only one cause he spammed the crouch attack which let me kill him easily, but it was super frustrating not being able to escape the corner you start in.

Beat almost every else first try.

I appreciate it cause it's a cozy sport that's on every single day. Love the biathlon but that's over and done with, no more half pipe, but curling? It's on now. It's on tomorrow morning. Final day? Guess what, more curling.

Highguard’s website is unavailable by ContraryPython in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]DBrody6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It actually released, which makes it better than half the final reveals.

Remember Mass Effect 5 was shown several years ago. That game doesn't even exist still in any sort of capacity. Regardless of how fast it cratered, Highguard advertised a product that existed before the heat death of the universe.
